It's Raining In Love (R.Brautigan) 2

[Intro] [bright staccato synth riff, driving drums, distorted bass] [Verse 1] [male baritone vocals] I don't know what it is But I distrust myself When I start to like a girl A lot It makes me nervous I don't say the right things Or perhaps I start To examine, evaluate Compute what I am saying If I say do you think it's going to rain And she says I don't know I start thinking does she really like me [synth pad swells] In other words I get a little creepy [Chorus] [full band, soaring vocals] [distorted guitar chords] [Verse 2] A friend of mine once said it's twenty times better To be friends with someone Than it is to be in love with them I think he's right and besides it's raining somewhere Programming flowers And keeping the snails happy That's all taken care of [Chorus] If a girl likes me a lot And starts getting real nervous And suddenly begins asking me funny questions And looks sad if I give the wrong answers And she says Things like Do you think it's going to rain And I say It beats me And she says oh And looks a little sad At the clear blue California sky I think thank God it's you baby this time Instead of me [Outro] [synth riff returns, drums fade out]
